References to Neith as the "Opener of Paths" occurs in Dynasty Four through Dynasty Six, and Neith is seen in the titles of women serving as priestesses of the goddess. Such epithets include: "<i>Priestess of Neith who opens all the (path)ways</i>", "<i>Priestess of Neith who opens the good pathways</i>", "<i>Priestess of Neith who opens the way in all her places</i>". (el-Sayed, <b>I</b>: 67-69). el-Sayed asserts his belief that Neith should be seen as a parallel to Wepwawet, the ancient jackal god of Upper Egypt, who was associated in that southern region with both royalty in victory and as a psychopomp for the dead. </p><p>The main imagery of Neith as <i>Wepwawet</i> was as the deity of the unseen and limitless sky, as opposed to representations of Nut and Hathor, who respectively represented the manifested night and day skies.<sup id="cite_ref-globegy_31-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-globegy-31"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>29<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Neith's epithet as the "Opener of the Sun's paths in all her stations" refers to how the sun is reborn (due to seasonal changes) at various points in the sky, under Neith's control of all beyond the visible world, of which only a glimpse is revealed prior to dawn and after sunset. It is at these changing points that Neith reigns as a form of sky goddess, where the sun rises and sets daily, or at its 'first appearance' to the sky above and below.
